After soaking the seeds in water for 18hrs, I then transplanted the soaked seeds into paper towels for 2 days until the taproots appeared. I then transplanted the taprooted seedlings into the cococoir.
Week 4 and 4 days; I added Canna PK 13/14, Advance Nutrient's Big Bud and Bud Candy after some lite trimming and sucker pruning. Then I reduced the light schedule down to 11/13 from 12/12.
These pictures were taken one day after a lite fan leaf trimming, small suckers removal, adding flowering nutrients and changing the lights from 12/12 to 11/13. I discovered, with my growing style, that after starting a 12/12 light regime from seed until first fan leaf trim and flowering nute additions my girlz benefit even more with an hour less of light. Less light stress increases over all growth and bud development from an already stress-free veg stage. No pests, no diseases, no nute burns, no LST, no excessive light leaf washout and only one trimming at switch over to flowering stage nutes and one hour less of light. I may do one more trimming due to fan leaves losing their green hue and dying off after supplying the buds with their stored sugars/energy. My girlz have been on cruise control from day one and will continue to cruise until harvest. I only water/feed when my grow bags are light to lift, usually 2-3 days. I know that they're happy when the fan leaves are "praying" to the "LED GODS" above. LoL (see wk6 pics)
C U N 1 WK (next Tues)... Until then ☮️UT
This is actually week 6. I had to do some more trimming and main shoot LST because of early flowering stretch. I'm using 5 gallons of water for each feeding every two to three days using a wet dry cycle watering method instead of a constantly moist/damp substrate. I've noticed thick main stalk growth and a knot on one of the Tropicanna Poison root. Until next week. ☮️
This is week 7 and I upgraded my lighting situation. I am now running a 4000w White Rose LED and a 3000w Vander LED. I had my ml to gallons nutes/water ratios posted wrong earlier, now corrected. I included spec screenshots for both of my led lamps (the White Rose and Vander unit). Until. Next week, ☮️
This is week 8 and the flowering stage stretch has stopped and the buds are filling out real nicely. The odor is "Oh Dear" LOUD and stomach turning. I had to remove a Tropicanna Poison because during the flower stretch it got over shadowed and never caught up with her sisters and suffered some wayward fan damage. I also stopped the PK-13/14 and I do not plan on reintroducing the Canna A/B two part nutes but instead use the Canna Start in very low concentrations for basal nitrogen levels unless I see some nitrogen deficiencies. Here are this weeks pics, Enjoy! Until next week. ☮️
This was very routine. No new issues or problems. This grow has been very uneventful and that's excellent. The bud are filling out wonderfully and smelling very poignant. Enjoy the pictures. Until next week.
Update 11/18 - I had to do some fan leaf culling for lower light penetration and overgrowth. Starting with the next watering cycle no more nutes only plain water until harvest. This is to facilitate nitrate flushing and for the plant to use reserved nutrients that is still present in the coco coir and also in the plants them selves. I want Grey ash not black ash and a smoother draw.
I plan on flowering for another three weeks then do a split harvest by cutting the larger upper colas nearer to the lights and this will allow for the lower plant to develope fuller and fatter buds. I'll probably run this second half of the flowering stage maybe for another 3-4 weeks until the final harvest.
Until my next update..... ☮️UT
Hello again. This week went by fast. I think that I will be taking the tops in one week and continue to flower the lower growth. Still under a plain water regime. Enjoy the pics. Until next week... ☮️♈♐
This will be harvest week. I will take the mature buds and leave the underdeveloped buds to fill out more. They're still on plain water and doing very well. They are some thirty girls also, they can go thru a gallon and a half per plant in two days flat using the wet/dry method. Meaning, I'll water until super saturated then allow the coco coir to damn near dry down to the immediate root ball then super saturate again. As the plant enlarges the cycle gets shorter and shorter. So, until next week. ☮️⛎♐
Large harvest... I dried the buds out in my homemade chamber and after four days they were dry enough for the curing stage. I place the buds in large glass cookie jars and then sealed the tops with plastic wrap and placed the lids on top to complete the sealing process. Every week I'll open the seal to burp and let fresh air in while checking smell and looks for signs of mold growth or any other unwanted anomalies. After four or so weeks I'll know more about the terp profiles when most of the chlorophyll has converted to other gasses and flavor profiles. Enjoy the pics. ☮️⛎♐

This is the last of the three plants that needed to be harvested, the second Caramel Cream and the bottom half of the only Tropicanna Poison. Enjoy... ☮️⛎♐
This is the last of the harvest, everything is dried, now curing and my last post. 🙂🙂🙂It's been fun and a learning experience. Thanks for the likes and looks. Until next time
⛎♐ and Stay 🆒
